Re: Registration 2011
 

Who's the team coming back from 18 years ago?

Re: Registration 2011
 

We received word a few days back that we had been added to the line-up in Lone Star. It's good to see our name on the list this morning.

Not sure, but I don't think they've updated Dallas, have they, Mark?

Probably 3588 from Lindbergh HS in Renton, WA.

https://my.usfirst.org/myarea/index....E809oGY35DE9DB

They competed as one of the original teams.

Re: Registration 2011
 

Team 3588 from Renton, WA last played in 1993. (What Madison said)

Dallas hasn't changed since the 15th.

Re: Registration 2011
 

Mark, I see team 358 is on the list for WPI--I look forward to meeting you there.
I really enjoy this thread, Thanks for all your work.

Re: Registration 2011
 

I may be disappointing in person, I fail to spout random facts.
and my wife complains that I have my head in the computer all the time...

See you there :)

Re: Registration 2011
 

So watching the NFL draft is boooooriiiig. I'm going to start a campaign to get you on Sports Center to talk about the teams, who is going where and why, the relationships with rookie teams, etc.

Thanks Mark, it was a good year of runup. Now to watch teams fill into the championships.

Re: Registration 2011
 

I disagree. :D

Re: Registration 2011
 

Seconded. See you @ WPI.

Re: Registration 2011
 

Both Pittsburgh and North Carolina have had teams added off the waitlist. I'm not sure if they are done yet - Pittsburgh claimed to have up to 39 total spots.

Re: Registration 2011
 

How about this...

• 14% of the teams are "away" teams at the Long Island Regional.
• 0% of the Michigan District teams are away teams.

In other words they aren't a local team in the sense that they live in a different area that is covered by a different "home" Regional.

If some of you are willing to take a shot at your own local Regionals, where you know who's just visiting and who always comes, I could do the remainder. It would be a coarse estimate across most of the events, since we have limited local knowledge, but it could be based on where teams consistently go over the past, say three years.

Re: Registration 2011
 

For the CT regional I come up with 28% away counting only CT teams as local.

Re: Registration 2011
 

For the Philadelphia Regional, I count about 63% under ~1 hour of travel, and 42% with around 30min or less. (That's from PA, NJ, and DE.)

Estimated to nearest 15min
Average - 1:20
Media - 0:45
Mode - 0:30

Re: Registration 2011
 

For WPI in its second year, 17 out of 34 are new to the event after the wait list was cleared.
For Boston, 5 out of 45 are new to the event--before the wait list is cleared.
